Is there a way to open PDD pictures without purchasing photoshop? Sometimes friends send these types of files that I am unable to open.
Thank You
Jim

.pdd is a bitmap image that is also used by coral paint shop pro.

I believe the free editing software Gimp has an extension for opening these files. you could also try changing the extension to .bmp and see if it can still be read (might work but a very slim chance).

use the SAVE AS option on a photo editing program
as well as setting the name you can normally pick the type of file, just pick JPEG
It can be that easy
